Faust, and Howell Easterling. Major Bamberg, Dr. Raysor, and J. J. Barnes purchased a lot for $75 in 1853, and gave it to the Methodists for a church site. The lot is the present Restland cemetery. Major Bamberg, who died in 1858, is buried in Restland cemetery. from http://www.bambergsc.com/city/history.htm
